I have an older water heater (+10 years!) and I think one reason it has lasted this long is that it doesn't work that hard - several years ago I set it so just the pilot flame is on. It may have lasted so long simply because it was well made. My previous gas water heater lasted 24 years. I just replaced it a month or so ago. I don't expect the new one to last half that long. Holy ****.... who made it? They could use you for an advertisement or sumpn.... -- EA |
